We are hiring a Medical Device Reprocessing Technician for our dental sterile bays in Ladysmith Smiles and Nanaimo Smiles dental clinics, both of which are owned by Dr. Nadia Stymiest.

Dr. Stymiest’s practices include all aspects of dentistry, with a particular interest in oral surgery, pediatrics and restorative dentistry. Since graduating from Boston University, Nadia has continued to invest in her education with courses such as Invisalign, Nitrous Oxide Sedation, and neuromodulators. Her clinics follow the “people first” principles for staff and patients and pride themselves in diversity and inclusiveness.

To be considered, you must have:

• Grade 12 completion
• Successful completion of Sterile Supply Processing course
• One year of recent, related experience
• Or equivalent combination of education, training, and experience
• An eagerness to learn with one-on-one training
• The ability to commute to Nanaimo Smiles, and occasionally Ladysmith Smiles

What you’ll get by joining our team:

• Competitive salary based on your awesome experience and qualifications.
• Extended health and dental benefit
• Paid sick days and onsite free parking
• Financial assistance for relocation for a smooth and stress-free transition to your new home.
• Opportunity to work in both a well-established practice and a brand new, state-of-the-art facility with room for growth.
• Professional development opportunities to enhance your skills and knowledge. We want to invest in you and incorporate your goals into the future of our practice.
• Great co-workers who genuinely love what they do and who they work with—and who enjoy celebrating any occasion possible with a sweet treat. Want to get to know our company culture a little more? Hangout with us over on social: @ladysmithsmiles and @nanaimosmiles
• We are located on Vancouver Island—a hard perk to top. Those of you who already live here and have undoubtedly fallen in love with the island lifestyle, we know you get it. But for those looking for an adventure and to relocate, working with us means exploring the exceptional beauty of Vancouver Island in your downtime. With the new high-speed ferry service to downtown Vancouver, there’s never been more convenient access to working on the island.
